I don’t believe so — from a software viewpoint, PCI-E is quite well disguised to look like (fast) PCI.
As far as I know, nearly the only reasonable way to do this is with specialized hardware — specifically a logic analyzer with a PCI-E bus probe. I’ve used an Agilent analyzer with a FuturePlus probe, and can recommend the combination with only a couple reservations: first, it’s not cheap. Second, it can be a bit of a jump for somebody accustomed purely to software.
